To evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics profile of KPS-0373 in patients with SCD
The purpose of this study was to better understand the treatment outcomes of extended-release methylphenidate and atomoxetine in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as evaluated by physicians and parents in a community setting.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the risk of hepatitis B reactivation in patients undergoing allografting.
Isoflavonoids, through their estrogen-like activity, are in part responsible for the cholesterol lowering properties of soy foods. If this is found to be so, then it would be advantageous not only to promote soy consumption, but also to identify and use soy cultivars with high isoflavonoid content in production of soy food products. These foods may have a use in the reduction of serum cholesterol and if they effectively increase the phytoestrogen activity of soy, may have a role in the prevention of other hormone dependent diseases (e.g. osteoporosis, certain cancers) in the same way as natural estrogens.
The enormous global burden of mental illness has been estimated through the publication of the Global Burden of Disease Study, adding momentum to refugee mental health studies (1,2). As research confirms that high levels of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and depression occur in post-conflict settings, it is essential to develop effective treatment for psychological trauma in refugee populations recovering from mass violence (3-4). PTSD and depression are risk factors for anger, interpersonal discord and violence, not only among those who have trauma and depression, but also among their spouses and children (5-9). This "infectious" model of trauma/violence is critically important in the setting of ethnic conflict, as increased levels of interpersonal violence within the afflicted community hinder its recovery and fuel future cycles of conflict. To date, there has been little research on the interpersonal effects of trauma among refugee populations. The proposed research is a pilot and randomized controlled trial of "Interpersonal Therapy" (IPT) for Sudanese refugees living in Cairo. IPT, a very effective therapy for depression, has been adapted for PTSD treatment and sub-Saharan Africa settings (10-12). Measures will evaluate success of the treatment not only in terms of individual PTSD and depression symptoms, but also with respect to interpersonal conflict. Hypotheses: (1) After IPT intervention, Sudanese refugees will have lower levels of depression and trauma symptoms compared to wait list controls (2) After IPT intervention, Sudanese refugees will have lower levels of interpersonal violence compared to wait list controls.
A prospective, comparative, randomized single surgeon study comparing minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty (MIS) via anterior approach to conventional total hip arthroplasty via anterolateral transgluteal approach.
Estimation of functional liver reserve in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhosis is of paramount importance to properly select candidates for surgical resection. Together with the value of bilirubin, the presence/absence of ascites and esophageal varices, and the rate of residual liver volume, which are our current parameters to measure functional liver reserve, the investigators sought to investigate the value of preoperative cholinesterases (CHE) in predict postoperative adverse outcome after hepatic resection for HCC.
1. To evaluate the effects of a single oral (80 mg) dose of propranolol on the encoding of emotional pictures as assessed by peripheral physiological and electrocortical parameters in a healthy population. 2. To evaluate the effects of a single oral (80 mg) dose of propranolol on the retrieval of emotional pictures as assessed by electrocortical parameters in a healthy population. 3. To evaluate correlations between behavioral data and psychophysiological parameters.
